Latest news from the Ministry of Commerce regarding fiber optic cables
On March 4, 2025, the Ministry of Commerce initiated an anti-circumvention investigation on imported single-mode optical fiber products originating from the United States, following an application by domestic enterprises. This marks China's first anti-circumvention investigation. China has slapped American fibre-optic firms with anti-dumping tariffs – a move announced hours after the US Treasury imposed sanctions on a Guangzhou-based chemical firm, over fentanyl claims. The order, to be executed by April 2024, requires HFCL to supply multiple types of cables as per customer specifications. The ministry announced this decision on March 4.

Low-power optical module for local area network 800G
1, 2025 — 800G LPO DR8 from FS is an OSFP finned top linear pluggable optics (LPO) module for high-speed data transmission with ultralow power consumption, reduced latency, and superior cost efficiency in machine learning and AI applications. As illustrated below, the LPO modules retain only the driver and transimpedance amplifier (TIA), each incorporating continuous-time linear equalization (CTLE) and equalization (EQ) capabilities to compensate for high-speed signal impairments. The new module is designed for short-reach intra-data-center links connecting GPUs, switches and high-density server racks. By leveraging linear pluggable optical (LPO) technology, these modules minimize on-module. NEW CASTLE, Del.
